Grade 2 Listed building.
Built work started in 1844
Building work completed in 1848
Built to house up to 200...
I no what your all thinking.. Not another Denbigh report this place has been done so many times I've even been there a few times myself but here goes anyway.. It is in quite a bad way been smashed to pieces and full off graff even tho elwyn does try his best to keep people out. Or in some cases...
Well we all know about this one but here is some history which I enjoyed stealing from Hamtagger who stole it from Session9.
Designed by architect Thomas Full James to originally accommodate between 60 and 200 patients, the hospital originally had its own farm and gasworks. Planned for closure...
North Wales Hospital, Denbigh - March 2015
So, I bought a GoPro a few weeks ago and took it out for a test drive recently around North Wales. I captured footage from various locations and i've thrown together a little clip with dodgy music from t'internet for you all to have a look at :D...

I know this one has been done to death so I'll keep it short.
HISTORY
The asylum was built between 1844-1848 and housed mentally ill patients from the surrounding North Wales area. It continued to grow in size with various renovations and extensions and by 1956 was able to house in excess of...
This is my second visit here but after 4 hours there the last time we still missed quite a lot (And still didn't get into one this time) I went with my nephew (High Tower) the first time and his youngest bro (Matt) wanted to go if we went again.
The day didn't start as planned as I was up all...
This was my second stop for the day, we had already been to Simons Mill (Report soon) and we had arranged with Canonfodder & Jen (Not sure if she has a user name on here) for them to show us around the Great Denbigh Asylum.
I don't know what I expected, but the first thing was the lack of...
Good Old Denbigh, the history of this hospital has been done many a time, so won't bore you with that.
Part of my recent road trip south, I headed here after failing miserably at another site. This being my second visit mainly because I realised once I got home from the last trip that I missed...
Well we all know this old girl! It only took four and half years to get here, and 2 months to get round to putting up the report!
Borrowed from Humpas report (28dayslater) and updated
A nice relaxed start to a holiday with the Mrs, and no sign of Beardy :-) No access to admin as it was pretty...
Sadly I didn't see the living legend that is Elwyn but I did hear someone walking around outside with what sounded like a rather large dog going from the barking.
I had one job on for the day that was in Ruthin and as the only other thing that is nearby is Pool Park and I was in there a month...
i was here a few weeks ago and never saw the bearded one, the main building has been stripped and all the floors removed. i don't know when it happened but i hadn't seen anything on it! so was a little gutted but on with the photos
stripped main building

You all know the history, superb place! Shame about Beardy trying to shove me and my friends in the Most haunted padded cell and threatening us with his dog! My mates ass got bitten by the blighter too!
Another instalment and the last site visited on Scattergun's and mine's Englandshire trip. Too end the trip we spent the night with BadBatz (cheers for putting us up again dude) and hit the road early to pick up AltDayOut and to visit the Welsh Sugar Asylum, this was the last stop on our...

]A truly stunning exterior, with some beautiful features, and a very scary "security guard"
He made his dog bite my friend, he has hired some local teens to walk around the place with rifles to scare off any explorers and is a truly horrible man, I have a video of him threatening me and my...
So we all know this place, if you don't what planet have you been on for the past decade?
